A new free Wi-fi service has been launched for Listowel town.
FREE publicly accessible wi-fi is now available in Listowel town as part of a EU initiative. Listowel is the first town in Kerry to benefit from the new service which was launched this week by the Cathaoirleach of the Listowel Municipal District, Cllr Aoife Thornton.
WiFi4EU promotes free access to Wi-Fi connectivity for citizens in public spaces including parks, squares, public buildings, libraries, health centres and museums in urban centres throughout Europe.
The Wi-Fi at various locations around the town will be of benefit to visitors especially, but also to local users who may not have mobile data packages.

Cllr. Thornton warmly welcomed the new service: “Providing free Wi-Fi to the public and especially to visitors to Listowel, complements not only our new Greenway but the extensive development of the public realm and the use of outdoor spaces around the town.”
Developed with EU funding of €15,000 with matched finance from the Department of Rural & Community Development, the service is provided by Kerry County Council with the support of Listowel Chamber Alliance.
The Wi-Fi is available at multiple sites in the town, such as the Square, the Town Park, the Community Centre, the Library, the Courthouse and Kerry County Council offices, parts of William Street, Market Street, Church Street and Courthouse Road.
A map showing service locations and providing further information and links is available on the Council’s website: https://www.kerrycoco.ie/wifi4eu/
